* VindicatedByHistory: The novel was forgotten during the Great Depression and WWII, and didn't sell that well when it was first released. To the point that once F. Scott Fitzgerald tried to find his books in the store, when it carried no copies of it at all. Over the years it has become [[UsefulNotes/SchoolStudyMedia standard reading material in academics]], although hefty amounts of HypeBacklash has started to diminish this.

** Tom Buchanan: a hypocrite who cheats on his wife while demanding monogamy from her, or a husband who assumes that they're both in an open marriage, but that their affair partners should always be kept separate from their social life, and never made to have dinner together?

* HilariousInHindsight: Tom, Daisy, and the rest of the novel's idle rich might seem to get away with everything they do without consequence. But considering that the Great Depression is only a few years away, their inevitable fate of losing everything does grant the reader some closure and retroactively prevents them from pulling a KarmaHoudini.

* HilariousInHindsight: Tom, Daisy, and the rest of the novel's idle rich might seem to get away with everything they do without consequence. But considering that the Great Depression is only a few years away, their inevitable fate of losing everything does grant the reader some closure and retroactively prevents them from pulling a KarmaHoudini.
